Reading ComprehensionFootballFootball is，I suppose，the most popular game in England：one has only to go to one of the important matches to see this. Rich and poor，young and old，one can see them all there，shouting and cheering for one side or the other. One of the most surprising things about football in England to a stranger is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams. He has photographs of them and knows the results of a large number of matches. He will tell you，with a great air of authority，who he expects will win such and such a match，and his opinion is usually as valuable as that of men three or four times his age.Most schools in England take football seriously - much more seriously than nearly allEuropean schools，where lessons are all-important （至关重要的），and games left for private arrangements. In England，it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling a boy's mind with facts in a classroom；education also means character training；and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games，especially team games, where the boy has to learn to work with others for his team，instead of working selfishly （自私地）for himself alone. The school therefore arranges games and matches for its pupils. Football is a good team game，it is good exercise for the body，it needs skill and a quick brain，it is popular and it is cheap：as a result，it is the school's favorite game in the winter.1. In England football is a game enjoyedA only by young people.B only by rich people.C only by boys.D by people of all ages and classes.2. A stranger in England will be surprised to find that in that countryA people have little knowledge of football.B girls are more interested in football than boys.C even small boys know a lot about football.D children are not interested in football at all.3. There is a great difference between schools in England and those in Europe in thatA European schools take football seriously.B European schools often arrange football matches for their pupils.C schools in England care little about lessons.D schools in England believe character training to be part of education.4. According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true of the football game？A It makes people selfish.B It encourages cooperation.C It is good for health.D It is not expensive.5. What is the author's attitude towards the football game in England？A Critical.B Positive.C Negative.D Doubtful.Calling for Safe Celebrations This Fourth of JulyLast Fourth of July, Pete, a 14-year-old boy, was enjoying the lit-up skies and loud booms from the fireworks being set off in his neighborhood. Suddenly, the evening took a terrible turn. A bottle rocket爆竹shot into his eye, immediately causing him terrible pain. His family rushed him to the emergency room for treatment. As a result of the injury, Pete developed glaucoma(青光眼) and cataracts(白内障). Today, Pete has permanent vision loss in his injured eye because of his bottle rocket injury.June is Fireworks Eye Safety Awareness Month, and through its EyeSmart campaign the American Academy of Ophthalmology wants to remind consumers to leave fireworks to professionals. "There is nothing worse than a Fourth of July celebration ruined by someone being hit in the eye with a bottle rocket," said Dr. John C. Hagan, clinical correspondent for the Academy and an ophthalmologist at Discover Vision Centers in Kansas City. "A safe celebration means letting trained professionals handle fireworks while you enjoy the show."According to the U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, more than 9,000 fireworks-related injuries happen each year. Of these, nearly half are head-related injuries, with nearly 30 percent of these injuries to the eye. One-fourth of fireworks eye injuries result inpermanent vision loss or blindness. Children are the most common victims of firework abuse, with those fifteen years old or younger accounting for 50 percent of fireworks eye injuries in the United States. Dr. Hagan estimates that his practice sees more than 30 injuries each year from fireworks.Even fireworks that many people consider safe represent a threat to the eyes. For children under the age of five, apparently harmless sparklers account for one-third of all fireworks injuries. Sparklers can burn at nearly 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit.6. What happened to Pete last Fourth of July?A He was burned in a house fire.B He was caught in a rain.C He was injured in a fight.D He was hit in the eye.7. The American Academy of Ophthalmology calls on consumers toA celebrate the Fourth of July with fireworks.B leave fireworks to professionals in their celebrations.C stop celebrating the Fourth of July altogether.D set off fireworks together with trained professionals.8. How many fireworks eye injuries occur in the US each year?A About 9,000.B About 4,500.C About 1,350.D About 30.9. Fireworks eye injuries can result in each of the following EXCEPTA blindness.B permanent vision loss.C glaucoma and cataracts.D head-related injuries.10. Which is NOT true of sparklers?A They are harmless to children.B They are considered safe by many people.C They are a threat to the eyes.D They can burn at very high degrees.Key:。

Unit 1 How do you study for a testThe Teaching Plan for “Unit 1 How do you study for a test?”I. Analysis of the teaching materialThe content of this lesson is adopted from Go for it Book III Unit1. The topic of this unit is about learning how to study things. By reviewing this unit, students will be able to master the key vocabulary words and sentence patterns of this unit, and they’ll be better to talk about various learning ways, problems in learning, asking for and giving advice, and comments on ways of learning. Obviously, the topic of this unit is related closely to students' actual life, so it will raise students learning interest. They have a great desire to talk about the problems they met in learning English and they wish to solve these problems. So we can provide situations for students to exchange ideas in the process of study and help them find the most suitable ways to improve their English. It will also cultivate students’ ability of using English to solve the practical problems. Besides, students will learn to regard problems as challenges and try their best to find ways to solve them.According to English syllabus, new curriculum standards and the type of the lesson---- revision, I wi ll use “English learning” as a clue to review the key voc abulary and sentence patterns. Wilkings, a great linguist once said, “Without grammar, very little can be conveyed. Without vocabulary, nothing can be conveyed.” So, in this lesson, I lay great emphasis on the review of vocabulary. As words are used in sentences, I will review the key words and phrases in the sentences or contexts. Generally speaking, I’ll review the unit from the following four parts: ways of learning, problems, advice and comments. The four parts connect to each other closely and the topics are from easy to difficult. On the other hand, the four parts involve the main sentence patterns and key vocabulary stu dents must master in this unit. By reviewing the unit like this, at the end of the lesson, students are expected to write a letter about how to learn Chinese well based on what we reviewed.II. Analysis of learning conditionThe students I’m going to teach are from Wencheng Experimental Middle School. Most of them have a strong English background. So in this period, I mainly focus on how to get students to behave actively. And as a famous Italian doctor says, “Tell me and I will forget. Show me and I understand. Involve me and I remember!” In order to help the students maste r the key language points of this unit, I design different tasks for them to do, which will greatly get them involved in the classroom activities. As a result, they will have a better understanding of the language points.III. Teaching Objectives1. Knowledge O bjectives(1) The students will be able to master the key vocabulary words of this unit byreviewing them in different ways: make flashcards, pronunciation, differently, fast, deal with, regard, make mistakes, afraid, too … to …, etc.(2) The students will be able to use the following four sentence patterns in thegiven situations or daily life:①How do you learn English? I learn English by...② Why don’t you / Why not ...?③ Maybe you should …. / You’d better …④ I think studying Engli sh by …is…because…2. Ability Objectives(1)The students will be able to talk about their learning ways, and commenton the ways of learning English as well as the problems they meet in learning English and the solutions to them.(2) The students will be able to get information from reading passage.(3) The students will be able to use the words and sentence patterns reviewedin this period to write a passage about how to learn Chinese well.3. Emotion & attitude Objectives(1) The students will form a correct attitude to study.(2) The students will learn to choose good ways to study.4. Learning Strategies(1) The students will be able to get the information needed from the givenreading material. (Resourceful strategy)(2) The students will be able to make up a dialogue according to the providedsituation. (Communicative strategy)(3) The students will be encouraged to comment on the different ways of learning.(Cognitive strategy)IV. Teaching Focus1.The ways of learning English.2.The comment on the ways of learning English.3.The difficulties in learning English.4.The suitable learning ways for individuals.V. Teaching difficulties1.How to get students to review the key vocabulary and expressions presented inthis unit.Solutions: Review the vocabulary in different ways: brainstorming, practicing, explaining, writing a letter, etc.2.How to enable students to write a passage well enough.Solution: Review the vocabulary and sentence patterns may be used in the passage.3.How to make students master the usage of “verb +by with gerund”.Solution: Design tasks for students to do. By fulfilling the tasks, students are expected to use “verb +by with gerund” and thus know the usages of it well. VI. Teaching Methods1、Communicative approach2、Task-oriented method3、Practicing approach4、Situation-experienced methodVII. Teaching AidsMulti-media equipmentsVIII. Teaching ProceduresStep 1.Leading-in & Brain-stormingT: Class begins! Good morning, everyone!Ss: Good morning, teacher!T: Glad to meet you! Today is the first time we meet each other. Now let me introduce myself to you. I come from No. 2 Experimental Middle School. My name is Hu Haiyan. You can cal l me Miss Hu. I think we’ll have a good time together. Ok, now I’d like to know something about you. What’s your name? What’s your favorite subject? Why?S1: ….T: Do you like English? How do you study English?S2: …T: What about you? What do you think of your way?S3: …T: Hi! Nice to meet you! How long have you been learning English?S4: ….T: Well, most of you have been learning English for many years. And all of you have your own ways to learn English. Now take out the worksheet I gave you just now and fill in the mind map about the ways of English learning. Let’s see who can write t he most ways.(Ss try to write as many ways of English learning as possible.)T: O K. Are you ready? How many ways have you written? Show me your answers please. Who’d like to share your answers?(Ask two or three students to say the ways of English learning.)Design purpose: Talk with students freely can get a general idea about how well students mastered this unit and on the other hand, can help construct a relaxing learning atmosphere. The brainstorming activity can activate students’ knowledge about the ways of learning English. As a result, help them review the phrases of learning ways.Step 2. Survey & ReportT: So there’re many ways of English learnin g. And how do you learn it? What about your friends. What do you think of the ways? Please work in groups of four and make a survey about it. Fill in the chart in your worksheet.(Ss work in groups and try to fill in their charts.)T: Well, have your completed your survey chart?Ss: Yes.T: Good. Let’s make a report. Please pay attention to the sentence patterns you use. For example, when we find one way is not successful, we can say I think it’s not helpful at all. (Write “not …at all” on the blackboard.)Who’d like to give a report about it?(Let 3or 4 students give reports about their survey results.)Design purpose: This activity makes students work cooperatively and use phrases in sentences properly, which will not only review the sentence patterns, but also train students’ communicative ability. As to the students who are good at English,they can further their ability by giving reports about how their friends learn English. And the students will try to express their own attitudes toward various ways of learning in target language.Step 3. InterviewingT: You see, every one has his or her own ways of learning. And some students’ ways are really very successful. Recently there is an English Speech Contest in Wenzhou. Some students really did well in it. And the winders are asked to hold a news conference. Suppose you took part in the contest, too. Now please work in groups of four to role play it. One is the winner; the others are the reporters from different TV stations. Try to ask as many questions as you can.(After students practice for a while, invite one or two students to come to the front as a winner, and let the other students ask them questions about English learning.)Design purpose: There are two purposes for the design of the News Conference: One is to review the two sentence patterns “Do you …” and “Have you ever …” And the other is to train students’ speaking ability and activate the classroom atmosphere ---- Get every student involved in the activity.Step 4. PracticingT: Congratulations! Your spoken English is really wonderful. What about other students? It seems you’re not confident enough to come to the front. Are you good at English? Do you have any difficulties in learning English? If so, what are they?(Let some students talk about the problems they face.)T: Well, don’t worry. It’s quite common to meet problems while learning something. My students have trouble learning English, too. Here’re their problems. But some of the words are missing. Can you help me to complete the sentences? Please take out the worksheet again. And try to complete the sentences in it.(Check the answers after students finish the task and help the students to review the key words and phrases presented in the ten sentences.)Design purpose: By doing exercise, students will review the main sentence patterns about the problems students meet in learning English and the words related to this topic. And in the process of checking the answers, the teacher can remind the students of the usages of some important words and phrases.Step 5. PairworkT: Well done. You’ve got all the answers right. But here comes another problem. There are so many problems we may meet in learning English, but we still need to learn English well. How can we deal with them? How do you deal with the problems you meet in learning English? Show me your ideas.(Let different students talk about how they solve problems.)T: Good idea. I’ll tell these solutions to my students. Do you know how I usually solve my problems?Ss: No.T: Well, generally speaking, I have two ways to solve problems. First of all, I’ll deal with my problems by regarding them as challenges. And I’ll try my best to overcome the difficulties. And if I can’t solve them by myself, I’ll ask someoneelse for advice. Do you like to ask others for advice?Ss: Yes.T: Then let’s work in pairs and tell your partner your problems. I think we can solve the problems together. Do you think so?(Ss work in p airs and make conversations. After they practice for a while, invite some pairs of them to present their conversations.)Design purpose: In this activity, students are asked to ask for and give advice to each other. By doing this, students will review the sentence patterns about how to make suggestions.Step 6. ReadingT: Good job. I wish all of you will try to regard all your problems as challenges and try your best to overcome them. I really appreciate these kinds of people. My friend Tom is such a person. Let’s see what problems he met and how he solved them. Please read the passage about him in your worksheet and try to complete the chart below it.(Students read the passage individually and try to get information to fill in the chart.)T: Are you ready?Ss: Yes.(Check the answers.)T: Excellent! Your reading ability is pretty good. Now we’ve known how Tom studied English. What do you think his solutions? I think studying English by joining an English club is a good way because you can ask others when you have questions. What’s your opinion?(Let different students comment on the ways of learning English, using the sentence pattern “I think studying English by… is … because…”) Design purpose: In this part, students are supposed to get information from the reading passage quickly and to give comments on ways of learning by using the sentenc e pattern “I think studying English by … is … because ….” As to this step, students should learn to combine simple sentences to make a complex one. This will help them improve their writing ability.Step 7 WritingT: Ok. Today we talked much about English learning. Suppose you have a pen pal named Bob is coming to Wencheng soon. And he’d like to learn Chinese. As a Chinese, I believe you can give him much advice. Please write a letter to him and tell him how to learn Chinese well. You can use the key words provided in your worksheet. And here are some tips for you. Try to answer the following questions in your mind, and you’ll know what should be included in your writing.1.How long have you been learning Chinese?2.How did you learn Chinese?3.What challenges did you meet in learning Chinese?4.What’s your attitude toward the problems you met?5.How did you deal with the problems of Chinese learning6.What do you think your ways of learning Chinese?(Ss work individually to write the letter.

Boys, on the other hand,do well when they still feel a little hungry.The researchers found that boys did better on tests of attention and memory when they were a little hungry,while girls performed better on the same testswhen they were full.When the tests became more complicated(复杂的),all study participants(参与者)who had more to eat for breakfast performed better than boys and girls who ate less.Previous studies about the relationship between a high-carbohydrate breakfast and concentration(注意力的集中)have had mixed results,but researchers of this study say that’s because they did not consider mood,as well. Mood(情绪) and cognition(认知) seem to interact(相互影响),say the authors.A fuller, more satisfying breakfast produced better performance in the study’s girl subjects, especially when they were in a good mood.Answer the following questions:5.If a girl wants to perform better in class,what should she do?6.If a boy wants to perform better in class,what should he do?According to the passage,judy the following statements are true or fause:( )7.Boys have a better memory,but lack more concentration than girls( )8.A good mood can help students do better in their lessons( )9.A good breakfast could be the key to girls’ success in school( )10.A good breakfast is also important for boys五，完成句子或句型转换（20分）1，那些孩子因为没有足够的食物最后饿死了。

I usually kept to myself, had only a few friends, and rarely spoke in class. My parents were always very busy, so they never pushed me to become more involved in activities and meet more people. I was perfectly happy by myself. I spent much of my time with my nose buried in a book. The only times that I ventured away from the comforts of my bedroom were when I explored the seemingly endless aisles of stocked bookshelves at my favourite bookstore.In retrospect, it was no surprise that I read with such an incredible appetite. Reading was my escape. My favourite books were adventure and travel stories—stories that brought the readers to exotic, unexplored, or dangerous places. These were places I longed to go, and they were adventures I yearned to experience, but I knew it was all just a fantasy. I had a hard time working up the nerve to talk to a fellow classmate, I knew there was no way I could travel around the world and live out one of these adventures. Therefore, I read. I read every book I could find that promised adventure, excitement, or escape. By the time I graduated from high school, I had probably read more books than our school had in its library. It was quite an achievement, but no one knew about it except for me. I told no one because I had no one to tell. My only friend was Justin, and that relationship only existed because we had been next-door neighbours for fifteen years.Like most of my classmates, I applied to college and eventually worked up the courage to go. It wasn't easy. I had lived at home with my parents my whole life, and I rarely ever thought about leaving. However, it had finally become inevitable; I couldn't stay with them forever. I attended a local college and moved out to live in a dormitory with a roommate. It would be an understatement to say that I was nervous. I was terrified.My roommate's name was Greg, and the first few weeks of school were very awkward. He kept trying to start conversations and be friendly. I was able to answer his questions, of course, but I found it difficult to keep the conversation going. I just wasn't used to it—I had no practice at this sort of thing. Then one day I returned from an afternoon class and found him reading a Jack London book. Suddenly, I found that I had ahundred questions to ask Greg. Did he like Jack London? Which was his favourite book? Did he read a lot? What other authors did he like? The list was endless.To my surprise, Greg was also in love with adventure and travel books. One of his dreams was to travel around the world and follow in the footsteps of some of history's greatest explorers. There must have been magic at work that day. It was as if my shyness suddenly disappeared. Greg and I talked for hours about our favourite books and dreams of travel. I also found it easier to talk to other people at school and make friends since that day. I felt like the world opened up to me. So many things suddenly seemed possible. In fact, Greg and I are planning a great adventure for this summer! It may have taken me a while, but I finally found a way to break out of my shell and start enjoying life.41. Which of the following is a rite of passage that helped the writer to become less shy?A. Attending high school.B. Reading many books.C. Attending college.D. Planning a great adventure.42. In which paragraph does the author compare his desire to read to hunger?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 4.D. Paragraph 5.43. Which of the following would make the best title for this passage?A. A Painfully Shy ChildB. My College LifeC. Travels with GregD. Breaking Out of My Shell44. "It would be an understatement to say that I was nervous. I was terrified." What does the writermean by this statement?A. He wasn't nervous at all.B. He was mildly nervous.C. He was as nervous as usual.D. He was extraordinarily nervous.45. Which of the following statements can you infer from the passage?A. Jack London wrote exciting stories.B. Jack London wrote dull stories.C. Jack London wasn't a famous writer.D. Jack London was the writer's favourite writer.。

Unit1Working Holiday AbroadKey to ExercisesOpenerGoing on a working holiday has many advantages:•A working holiday visa grants you access to a country for a longer period of time than a standard tourist visa.•The travel is sustainable in the sense that you can keep refilling your travel funds with employment.•You can try different types of jobs,even the ones that you normally wouldn’t do when at home. And in this sense,a working holiday could be a life-changing experience.•You are more likely to meet and make friends with the locals,not just other tourists.They can introduce you to a new culture.•A working holiday makes a good break.A popular time to sign up for a working holiday is the break between high school and college or the break after college and before entering the real working world.Transcript:A working holiday is when you spend a significant amount of time in another country and have the working rights to back it up.You are able to pick up a job or two(or6)and break that arrangement up by traveling or moving on to a new location in the country.In general,a working holiday visa grants you access to a country for a longer period of time than a standard tourist visa.In Australia,for example,the typical tourist visa is for3months while a working holiday visa is for12months.With a working holiday visa,you can work as you go,meaning you won’t necessarily go into debt while spending time abroad.Your method of travel may vary.Some prefer to travelup-front for several months and then spend the rest of the time working in one or two differentlocations.Others prefer to work for a month,travel for a month and then work for a month again. Either way,the travel is sustainable in the sense that you can keep refilling your travel funds with employment.With a working holiday visa,you are basically given the opportunity to test out any type of job,and you are probably put in a position to accept ones that you normally wouldn’t when at home.You never know what you might discover.A working holiday,in this sense,could end up being a life-changing experience.Moreover,by taking up employment in a country abroad,you are more likely to meet and make friends with the locals,not just other tourists,and that can do wonders for really introducing you to a new culture.A working holiday also makes a good break.A popular time to sign up for a working holiday is that break between high school and college or the break after college and before entering the real working ter working holiday experiences are often used by individuals as a way to explore the new and unknown.Taking part in a working holiday is a great idea to

abroad you will need to do a number of things.There is quite a lot of paperwork to complete.You will need to fill out various forms,including a visa application.Make sure it is the sort that allows you to take employment,rather than just being an ordinary tourist type that allows you to do sightseeing only.Alongside that,of course,you need to book your ticket.Once that is all done you will be ready to set off.Don’t let the thought of stepping outside your comfort zone frighten you,don’t let it stress you out.You may set outon your own,travelling solo,but you will soon make friends with many of the new people you meet on the way.So,start browsing the Internet to see where you would like to start your adventure!4.2TranslationIf you are fully prepared,your working holiday abroad can be one of the most rewarding experiences you can ever have.Here are some tips.First,you need to choose your destination wisely by browsing relevant websites.Then fill out the necessary paperwork,apply for a visa and book your flight as early as possible.Try to learn some new job skills prior to your departure, which can give you more employment options abroad and help you save up enough money for travel.Within weeks of arriving in a foreign country,people often feel stressed out or kind of confused,so be prepared for the emotional stress.Make friends with local people instead of taking the adventure solo.And whenever possible,go on sightseeing excursions and capture the places you visit in words or st,always follow your heart and do what you truly want to

Fire!” What terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a strange house in the middle of the night! It was a large，old，wooden house-the sort that burns easily-and my room was on the top floor. I jumped out of bed，opened the door and stepped out into the passage. It was full of thick smoke.I began to run，but as I was still only half-awake，instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see flames all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open door and ran into a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it，one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes，and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me.I saw a flaming doorway in front，put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned meterrible，but I got through. As I reached the cold air outside，my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry.I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I saw a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a night dress and a borrowed man’s coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly.“My baby! My baby!” she cried. The crowd cheered wildly as she took the smoke-blackened bundle out of my arms. I had some difficulty in recognizing her. She was the Mayor’s wife and I had saved her baby.
